Abstract :

Plectasin, a cationic antimicrobial peptides from the saprophytic fungus Pseudoplectania nigrella, exhibits strong bactericidal activity toward the key gram-positive pathogens--Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Arenicin-3, a member of the arenicin family from the marine lugworm Arenicola marina, has high activity against gram-negativ bacteria. Recently, our team has focused the innovation of above AMPs and their uses in control of animal diseases: (1) molecular design made antimicrobial activity against MRSA of NZ2114/MP1102 over 15 times higher than its parent peptide plectasin; (2) the platforms of high expression (expression level of 2.3 g/L by Pichia pastoris) and purification (purity over 93%) were built for low-cost production and industrial application; (3) in vitro dual antibacterial mechanisms of plectasin derived peptides involved interfering with the cell membrane and intracellular DNA of derived peptides towards methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), Streptococcus suis, Clostridium perfringens were revealed, as well as in mechanisms of arenicin-3 derived peptides against Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium, whose multi-target mode of action indicated the low resistance mechanisms differred from antibiotics; (4) MP1102/NZ2114 internalized into the cells via clathrin-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis and distributed in the cytoplasm and exhibited intracellular bacteriostatic efficiency in professional phagocyte (RAW264.7) and non-professional phagocyte (MAC-T). In addition, conjugating with cell-penetrating peptides improved the intracellular antibacterial activity of marine peptide N2 against the S. typhimurium; (5) in vivo study showed that NZ2114 and arenicin-3 derived peptides effectively increased the survival of mice, decreased the bacterial translocation in lung and liver, inhibited the release of TNF-α and IL-1β, and relieved the lung, liver, and spleen from acute injury induced by S. aureus, S. suis, E. coli, and S. typhimurium. The above results indicate a potential of plectasin and its derived peptides and arenicin-3 derived peptides as new ATA agents against gram positive and negative pathogens infections in animal.
